Archiving
When you print SAP Smart Forms documents, you can additionally archive them electronically and link them to the application data stored in the SAP System. You can archive only output in OTF format.
At the interface of the generated function module, SAP Smart Forms provides the following standard parameters for archiving purposes:
ARCHIVE_INDEX
ARCHIVE_INDEX_TAB
ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS
These parameters as well as the document itself are forwarded to SAP ArchiveLink. SAP ArchiveLink is a communication interface for administering storage systems within the SAP System.
In the spool dialog, the user determines the storage mode for the document. If you suppress the dialog you must set the TDARMOD field of the Output Options to '2' (Archive Only
) or '3' (Print and Archive
) (see also: Controlling the Spool Dialog).
